Green Desert Coffee, the mobile coffee shop that parks at Old Town Horse and Pet, is closing up shop for good. The final days to grab a coffee from them are Tuesday, October 24 – Friday, October 27 from 6:30 – 11 a.m., and they’ll be parked in the usual spot at 5665 W Ajo Highway.
Here’s what Green Desert Coffee shared on social media about the closure:
“I am saddened to close this chapter but it’s the move needing to be made. I look forward to the new endeavors that have been presented to me but I will truly miss each and every one of you. I want to say thank you to all. I wouldn’t have made it this far without you, especially those I see on a daily basis! I also want to extend a huge thank you to the Ferris family and everyone at Old Town Horse and Pet. You all welcomed me with open arms and were such a part of my growing process. I truly appreciate you all beyond words.”
Also, if you’ve always dreamed of having a coffee/beverage trailer of your own, Green Desert Coffee is selling its mobile coffee shop.
“The trailer is still for sale. DM for info or please pass along to anyone wanting to start in a coffee business. Licensed and passed in Pima County Health. The trailer can be used for other ventures like boba tea, a bakery on wheels, a lemonade stand, etc.”

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
